Behind the Eurasia International Film Festival there are already 15 successfully conducted large-scale film screenings, the first of which took place in the last century – in 1998. Only in the main competition during this time hundreds of films of leading foreign and domestic authors were shown. According to the films presented in different programs of the festival, students and schoolchildren can study the cinematic map of the world.

We appealed to the leading film critic of our republic, the President of the Association of Film Critics of Kazakhstan, and in addition, the program director of the Eurasia Festival Gulnara Abikeeva with a request to compile the Top 10 best films from among those who have ever participated in the Eurasia competitions. And this is the answer we got:
